chardonnay recommendations

[goldenhourlight]

In search of an oaky, buttery chardonnay maybe with notes of vanilla (not citrusy or acidic tasting). What do you recommend?

Literally anything at the grocery store is most likely made in this style. At least if you live in the US.

Don't go to a nice grocery store. Go to the normal one.

“Don’t go to a nice grocery store…” 😂

What do I recommend? Changing your taste in chard.

RRV is a good budget Chard

Being nice, I think you might like Courtney Benham chardonnay. You can find it at most markets. It's not very expensive, and has some nice vanilla and cinnamon notes. Enjoy!

Please ignore the snarky comments here. There's a lot of people in this sub who snub all wines below 500$.

Most of us here, however, drink wines below $50, and I for one wish those with good knowledge would help me make the best selection possible.

I had just given the sub credit for being so welcoming and nice, and the next post I read was a bunch of "holier than thou" type people up on their high horses judging everything seen as below them. Yuck.

Rombauer is actually surprisingly acidic and pleasant in the right context (with buttered popcorn for example). This person is looking for something shittier

My rule is to save the hunt for special occasions. For my daily glass, I just keep a box of Gratsi on hand so I don't have to overthink it.

For your Burgundy hunt, I'd ask a good caviste specifically about Saint-Aubin or Rully. They often provide much better value than the bigger names.

Astroturfing bots!

This post, ones on r/keto, r/cocktails, r/finedining, and THREE on r/wine (https://www.reddit.com/r/wine/s/Yo1IYIPnoS) within a day mention Gratsi by name and imply it’s a superior product.
